Nothing I saw at that link suggests that the parameters should be
included within the <function> scope.  If you follow links from
there to here:
 
http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/funcsynopsis.html
 
You find examples like this:
 
<funcsynopsis>
<funcprototype>
  <funcdef>void <function>qsort</function></funcdef>
    <paramdef>void *<parameter>dataptr</parameter>[]</paramdef>
    <paramdef>int <parameter>left</parameter></paramdef>
    <paramdef>int <parameter>right</parameter></paramdef>
    <paramdef>int <parameter>(* comp)</parameter>
      <funcparams>void *, void *</funcparams></paramdef>
</funcprototype>
</funcsynopsis>
