Description Walddys Emmanuel Dorrejo Céspedes 2023-08-21 12:42:37 UTC 
Today update the kernel to 6.4.11

The following package requires a system reboot:
kernel-default  6.4.11-1.1  x86_64  openSUSE-Tumbleweed-Oss  openSUSE

but when do `zipper ps -s`:

No core libraries or services have been updated since the last system boot.
Reboot is probably not necessary.

Which is correct, please read the manual page about "zypper ps":
"zypper ps lists all processes using deleted files, together
           with the corresponding files, and a service name hint, in case
           it’s a known service. This gives a hint which services may need to
           be restarted after an update."

The kernel is no core library or service.

You are looking for:

"/usr/bin/needs-restarting"

Or

"zypper needs-rebooting
Since the last system boot core libraries or services have been updated.
Reboot is suggested to ensure that your system benefits from these updates."
