+This returns a list of strings I<without any prefix>. Thus
+if the directory structure was:
+
+ /tmp/a
+ /tmp/b
+ /tmp/c/d
+
+then the returned list from C<guestfs_find> C</tmp> would be
+4 elements:

+ b
+ c
+ c/d
+
+If C<directory> is not a directory, then this command returns
+an error.
+
+The returned list is sorted.
+
+This function returns a NULL-terminated array of strings
+(like L<environ(3)>), or NULL if there was an error.
+I<The caller must free the strings and the array after use>.

+
+Notes:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item *
+
+Multiple status codes can be summed together.
+
+=item *
+
+A non-zero return code can mean "success", for example if
+errors have been corrected on the filesystem.
+
+=item *
+
+Checking or repairing NTFS volumes is not supported
+(by linux-ntfs).
