            Bug ID: 214254
           Summary: Freebsd-update does not request a reboot in all cases
                    where it is needed
           Product: Base System
           Version: 11.0-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: bc979 at lafn.org

I have several systems that were running 11.0-p1 (RELEASE) and needed to update
them to the latest security patches.  Freebsd-update brought down the updates
and when they were installed it said nothing about rebooting so I didn't. 

freebsd-version -ku
11.0-RELEASE-p2
11.0-RELEASE-p3

uname -a
FreeBSD sermons 11.0-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE-p1 #0 r306420: Thu Sep 29
01:43:23 UTC 2016     root at releng2.nyi.freebsd.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC
 amd64

Once I rebooted the system, uname showed -p2:

FreeBSD master 11.0-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE-p2 #0: Mon Oct 24 06:55:27
UTC 2016     root at amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC 
amd64

Apparently a reboot was required after the freebsd-update install and it should
have told me that was the case.
