This issue is being tracked in #2107

This happens when there are multiple functions with the same name, but on different receivers in the same package.
We use go doc to get the documentation, but at this time, we are not aware of which receiver to use.

Some workarounds are:

• Change your go.docsTool to gogetdoc which is smart enough to figure out the right documentation
• Or use the language server
