Why would you want to know which of them has matched? The ordering of
the matches is defined.

The ordering is defined, yes. But if the intention is to match members
of a Unix group called 'ivi', the current code will match against a Unix
user name called 'ivi'. Just belonging to a group that has an identical
name as a user name should not be considered a proper match.

Ah, I see. Anyway, I'll need to change this snippet to support matching on multiple groups a process might belong to.

The argument name called 'filename' is interesting as the comparison is
against the variable names 'policy->user' and 'policy->group'. It does
not sound logical to me.

Original idea was that the filename is used to as id we want to lookup.
Maybe I should call it just 'key'? Would that help?

cheers,
