Description
To avoid (rare) race conditions on both file writing and serial printing, we must wrap both of these actions in a mutex with low timeout, to avoid blocking.

Research direction
Start by locating the code paths responsible for file writing and serial printing, then inspect how those actions can overlap. Confirm the expected mutex timeout behavior and verify that both operations avoid race conditions without blocking indefinitely.
