The [docs](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#filter-pattern-cheat-sheet) imply it is a variant of glob, which means either `jdk([0-9])+*` or `jdk+([0-9])*` [might work](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tools/glob?comments=true&glob=jdk%2B%28%5B0-9%5D%29%2A&matches=false&tests=jdk&tests=jdk21&tests=jdk21u&tests=jdk21u-dev&tests=jdkusername-backport-12cafeebabe11&tests=jdk-8000000-fix). ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/16763#issuecomment-1821143850
