This is the critical event--one of the backends got a segfault. This
often means bad hardware--either your RAM is faulty, or something got
corrupted on disk and caused a bad pointer reference. Or maybe an
overheating CPU, if a fan failed.
That said, it's also possible that it's a Postgres bug, but it's more
likely to be hardware...

Test your hardware and replace any bad components.
