Freebsd 15.1. -p1 dirty ???

Did you reboot or is this before a reboot?
What does freebsd-version -kru show?

I did the same on my 15.1-RELEASE-p0, have not rebooted yet and freebsd-version shows (as I expect):
15.1-RELEASE-p1 <<<< kernel that will run on reboot
15.1-RELEASE <<<< currently running kernel
15.1-RELEASE-p1 <<<< Userland

uname -a shows (from the -p0 running kernel):
FreeBSD FBSDNUC 15.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 15.1-RELEASE releng/15.1-n283562-96841ea08dcf GENERIC amd64
 
Ok, so you did reboot.
I did "strings /boot/kernel/kernel | grep RELEASE" and get the same version string you show.
I'm not sure what it means but I'm sure someone will.
 
uname says "dirty" after freebsd-update fetch install . Did I fail ? or why is machine labeled as dirty ?

uname -a
FreeBSD h7510 15.1-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 15.1-RELEASE-p1 #0 -dirty: Tue Jun 30 03:16:39 UTC 2026 root@amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/sys/GENERIC amd64
This likely means the kernel was built while there were still some uncommitted files in the src tree. I see this in a VM updated with freebsd-update but don't see it in one updated with pkgbase.
 
I got several security announcements and updated. Then about 15 minutes later got some more, so for now, I'm waiting awhile I suspect that as bakul said, uncommitted files, but that's just a guess from me, not knowledge.
