My way of things are often not the obvious ones but ... if new kernel has been installed - then reboot is needed.

It kernel is the same - then 'sysutils/checkrestart' tells which things needs to be restarted w/o reboot.

root@freebsd15:~ # checkrestart 
  PID   JID USER         COMMAND      WHY ARGUMENTS
90634     0 root         sh           bin -sh
  442     0 root         syslogd      .so /usr/sbin/syslogd
84027     0 root         cron         .so /usr/sbin/cron
99100     0 root         syslogd      .so /usr/sbin/syslogd
  533     0 root         syslogd      .so /usr/sbin/syslogd
68981     0 root         sshd         .so /usr/sbin/sshd
90127     0 root         login        bin login [pam]

Hope that helps.
