The change only bumps pkgver in .SRCINFO from 7.3rc2 to 7.3rc3. .SRCINFO is metadata used by AUR helpers and does not itself introduce executable code, network behavior, privilege changes, or packaging logic. No suspicious sources or install scripts are implicated by this diff hunk alone. Risk is therefore minimal.

Comment

The change is a straightforward upstream version bump in .SRCINFO from Linux v7.3-rc2 to v7.3-rc3, with the corresponding source checksum updated. The source remains the official kernel.org git repository over HTTPS, pinned to a tag, and there are no new build-time downloads, scripts, or packaging changes introduced by this diff. No security red flags are evident in the provided hunk.

Comment

The change only bumps the upstream kernel tag/version from v7.3-rc2 to v7.3-rc3 and updates pkgver accordingly. No new sources, scripts, install logic, permissions, or packaging behavior are introduced. This is a routine version update with no security-relevant red flags in the provided diff.

Comment

The change is a straightforward upstream version bump from v7.3-rc2 to v7.3-rc3 plus the corresponding source checksum update. No new sources, scripts, patches, install hooks, privilege changes, or build-time network behavior are introduced by this diff. The only security-relevant effect is that the package now tracks a newer kernel release tarball, which is expected and still integrity-protected by the updated sha256sum and existing PGP keyring checks.
