Above works fine, not a strong opinion but just a comment,
this function is just for logging and output string will be short lived,
but it does lots of memory alloc and free, and expose lot of failure points.
To simplify, why not just alloc a big enough buffer, fill it in a loop
and never return NULL?
(Can always append "%s," and drop final ',' at the end.)
