In order to test this,

      1. create a custom field type : Text
      2. create an issue and add alphanumeric values to the custom field (for example, I added bh_ab123,bh_abc,bh12aaa,BH_AGENT)
      3. try searching by "Device name" ~ 'bh*' you get the output with all Device name values
      4. try searching with "Device name" ~ 'bh_*' you will get only one value : bh_ab123
