My concerns are not resolved. Why is it here in the first place?

Hi Krzysztof,

ETE is acronym of embedded trace extension. The number of the name is
the same as the number of the CPU it belongs to.

This is obvious and was not my question.

Do you mean why the pattern match of the node name is added here ?

This node should not have the node name match, right ?

Thanks

Best regards,
