You already did the check above for a valid 'st', and now you're just repeating it. Maybe if needs to be more of: if (st) { if (st->ss->load_container) ret = st->ss->load_container(st,mdfd, NULL); close(mdfd); if (!ret && st->ss->container_content) { ..... } } but maybe I'm just missing something here.
