Using an Assert to check the validity of incoming messages is an extremely poor decision. In a debug build, it should not be that easy for a broken or malicious remote client to crash the logrep worker. The consequences could be even worse in non-debug builds, which will fail to make such checks at all, leading to who-knows-what misbehavior. Hence, promote every Assert that could possibly be triggered by wrong or out-of-order replication messages to a full test-and-ereport. To avoid bloating the set of messages the translation team has to cope with, establish a policy that replication protocol violation error reports don't need to be translated. Hence, all the new messages here use errmsg_internal(). A couple of old messages are changed likewise for consistency. Along the way, fix some non-idiomatic or outright wrong uses of hash_search(). Most of these mistakes are new with the "streaming replication" patch (commit 464824323), but a couple go back a long way. Back-patch as appropriate.

This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download/ See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions.
