Check the docs.

psql \df shows you list of functions.

Description can be found in manual.

Start with:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/bookindex.html#AEN182285

and then, click on appropriate function.

For example, link for pg_last_xlog_receive_location is
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/functions-admin.html#FUNCTIONS-RECOVERY-CONTROL

and pg_current_xlog_location is
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/functions-admin.html#FUNCTIONS-ADMIN-BACKUP
