Try to /not/ think of synchronisation.

Kernel and userland are different, conceptually.

People are often referred to this non-official page:

FreeBSD Patch Level Table <https://bokut.in/freebsd-patch-level-table/>

– there's a link for releng/12.3, which relates to your 12.3-RELEASE-p⋯ 
example.

The page is not /entirely/ correct, but it's good enough for things such 
as this.

<https://old.reddit.com/r/freebsd/comments/z5gz72/-/ixwiq6k/> seeks 
contact details, for corrections.
