Like most of the questions you've posted to the list in the last
month, this question is so general that I'm not really sure what sort
of answer you're looking for.  If you know C, you should be able to
read the code and the comments and answer this question for yourself,
or at least post a much more specific question.  If you don't know C,
the people who read this mailing list are not going to teach you, just
because none of us get paid to do that.  You should think about
signing up for a programming class.

Roughly speaking, postgres.c is the server session process, and postmaster.c 
is the master process that forks the session processes.  The entry point to 
everything is in main.c.  Start reading there if you are interested in the 
details.
