syslog-ng no longer receiving kernel messages

Hi folks.

I am having a problem that syslog-ng no longer gets any kernel
messages.  It seems to get other messages, but not kernel messages.

Here is what happened.

In an update from kernel 5.10.70 to 5.10.82, I  enabled the kernel
race condition sanitizer.  I looked at its output and decided that it
would not do me any good, so I took that out and recompiled the
kernel.  However after rebooting the system, syslog-ng only gives me a
few messages from when the kernel sanitizer was active in my
/var/log/messages and the same for /var/log/kernel.

I am using systemd, so I have the jernal and it is OK, all messages
are posted correctly there.

Here is my /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf .

So, what have I been doing wrong, or is it something else?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

log { source(local); filter(f_14); destination(d_11); };
