Upgrading 15.1 to 15.2 with NVIDIA DRM/Wayland

[Matthew45]

I’m on FreeBSD 15.1-RELEASE-p3 with an NVIDIA RTX 2060. Plasma 6.7.5 Wayland is already working with nvidia-drm, drm-612-kmod, nvidia-drm-612-kmod, and seatd.
When FreeBSD 15.2 is released, is the expected upgrade path simply to follow the normal pkgbase upgrade procedure. and then update the matching 15.2 kernel modules from FreeBSD-ports-kmods?
In other words, assuming the 15.2 repositories provide properly built drm-*-kmod, nvidia-kmod, and nvidia-drm-*-kmod packages for 15.2, should there be no need to rebuild Wayland, Plasma, Xwayland, SDDM, or seatd from ports?
I only had to build the NVIDIA/DRM kmods manually on 15.1 because the available binary kmods were still built for 15.0. I’d like to confirm that this manual compilation should only be necessary again if the 15.2 kmod repository is unavailable or mismatched.

That's the idea, yes.

On 15.2-RELEASE released, 15.0 would have been EoL'ed and main ports repository for 15.* would be built aginst 15.1.

So unless the currently existing regression that NVIDIA related kmod ports are NOT built on kmod repo (building x11/nvidia-kmod alone), NVIDIA related kmods need to be built locally via ports on 15.2. But as far as I know, others would be fine using official pkgs.
