Suggest to use LOG_printf() function, which is intended for debug and status print-out during real-time operation.
Yes it is accessible from C code.

Any function can also be accessed from asm code, but this is more difficult and not recommended unless you have a
specific reason and you are an advanced, experienced DSP developer.
