None of the printf() family are async-signal safe. Using them in a signal handler could be deadlocking the app.

signal
signal(3tcl) signal(3tcl)
NAME
signal - dynamically loadable signal handling for Tcl/Tk
SYNOPSIS
signal (add|delete|print|version) [options]
COMMANDS
add signo proc [-async]
Adds a signal handler for signal signo through proc proc. Signals can be provided by number, or the most common ones are provided by name
(e.g., SIGHUP). The proc is any Tcl procedure, and it is evaluated when the signal comes in. It will be provided no arguments.
Signal handlers have Posix semantics - they persist until reset.
If -async is used, the signal handler is created using Tcl_AsyncCreate(). Checks for the signal are very frequent (each evaluation) using
this technique, but one doesn't know quite where evaluation is or how to handle errors in this situation. The code will evaluate the pro-
vided procedure in the current interpreter if available, and in the interpreter which added the signal handler otherwise. At least until a
better scheme is suggested.
The -async is especially useful to interrupt "runaway" procs, or to cause a quick exit; the default mechanism simply waits for another
MainLoop cycle.
signal delete signo
Restores handling of signal signo to the default ( SIG_DFL ).
signal print
Prints the handling of all signals with handlers. Formatted as
signal ----> procedure or as
signal !---> procedure
if the signal is handled asynchronously
signal print signo
Prints the procedure for handling signal signo. Prints the word UNHANDLED if no signal handler is active for that signal.
signal version
Returns the string representing the current version of the package
