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 Add " ()*,-/;[]{}" (in alphabetical order) to support matching against such symbols. Note that ']' and '-' should be the first and last characters in the %m range as sscanf required. A working example can be found at this repo ([0]).
