FreeBSD 12.2

Currently running FreeBSD 12.2 and updated it to the latest patch. However I seem to have a difference of opinion on what the patch level is ...

Code:
Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 2 mirrors found.
Fetching metadata signature for 12.2-RELEASE from update2.freebsd.org... done.
Fetching metadata index... done.
Inspecting system... done.
Preparing to download files... done.

No updates needed to update system to 12.2-RELEASE-p8.
root@myserver:~ # uname -a

FreeBSD myserver 12.2-RELEASE-p7 FreeBSD 12.2-RELEASE-p7 GENERIC  amd64

I'm guessing I don't need to worry about this but thought I would see if I'm missing something.
 
Code:
(root@mate /var/log)# uname -a
FreeBSD mate 13.0-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 13.0-RELEASE-p1 #0: Wed May 26 22:15:09 UTC 2021     root@amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/sys/GENERIC  amd64

freebsd-version -kru
Code:
-k          Print the version and patch level of the installed kernel.
-r          Print the version and patch level of the running kernel.
-u          Print the version and patch level of the installed userland.

The last patch update didn't update the kernel, so it still has the 'old' version. As other's already noted look at freebsd-version -u, not uname -a.
