PostgreSQL 10.8

NAME="Ubuntu"
VERSION="18.04.1 LTS (Bionic Beaver)"

What was the database doing just before the FATAL line?

Postgres was rejecting a bunch of connections from a user who is having a
connection limit set. that was the the FATAL error that i could see in log
file.
 FATAL,53300,"too many connections for role ""user_app"""

db=\du user_app
                           List of roles
  Role name   |          Attributes           |     Member of
--------------+-------------------------------+--------------------
 user_app | No inheritance               +| {application_role}
              | 100 connections              +|
              | Password valid until infinity |

The source(backend/storage/ipc/pmsignal.c ) says:

"/* Out of slots ... should never happen, else postmaster.c messed up */
         elog(FATAL, "no free slots in PMChildFlags array");
"

Someone else will need to comment on what 'messed up' could be
