There are a few various formats that Doxygen supports.  Looking at headers from llvm-c the most common convention appears to be JavaDoc style, although there are a few examples of other supported styles floating around the codebase.  E.g. from include/llvm-c/lto.h using JavaDoc style:

/**

- Diagnostic handler type.
- \p severity defines the severity.
- \p diag is the actual diagnostic.
- The diagnostic is not prefixed by any of severity keyword, e.g., 'error: '.
- \p ctxt is used to pass the context set with the diagnostic handler. *
- \since LTO_API_VERSION=7 */
