Golang symbols in ELF files are different from C/C++
which contains special characters like '*', '(' and ')'.
With generics, things get more complicated, there are
symbols like:
github.com/cilium/ebpf/internal.(*Deque[go.shape.interface { Format(fmt.State, int32); TypeName() string;github.com/cilium/ebpf/btf.copy() github.com/cilium/ebpf/btf.Type}]).Grow
Matching such symbols using `%m[^\n]` in sscanf, this
excludes newline which typically does not appear in ELF
symbols. This should work in most use-cases and also
work for unicode letters in identifiers. If newline do
show up in ELF symbols, users can still attach to such
symbol by specifying bpf_uprobe_opts::func_name.
A working example can be found at this repo ([0]).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
