Subject: [PATCH] perf parse: Allow names to start with digits
Date:   Sun, 12 Jun 2022 15:15:08 +0900
Message-Id: <20220612061508.1449636-1-asmadeus@codewreck.org>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Precedence: bulk

Tracepoints can start with digits, although we don't have many of these:

$ rg -g '*.h' '\bTRACE_EVENT\([0-9]'
net/mac802154/trace.h
53:TRACE_EVENT(802154_drv_return_int,
...

net/ieee802154/trace.h
66:TRACE_EVENT(802154_rdev_add_virtual_intf,
...

include/trace/events/9p.h
124:TRACE_EVENT(9p_client_req,
...

Just allow names to start with digits too so e.g. perf probe -e '9p:*'
works
