+IT IS UNSAFE! GROUND CONTENT YOU PLACE (INCLUDING WATER AND AIR) CAN BE OVERWRITTEN BY cavegen.
+ALL OTHER API FUNCTIONS ARE SAFE! USE THEM PLEASE! BUT WE NEED THIS FUNCTION STILL SOMETIMES,

+		`function(vm_context)`:
+			Function MUST RETURN `vm_context` back anyway! It will passed into next callback function from the queue.
+			`vm_context`: a table which already contains some LVM data if the fields, and some of them can be added right in callback function:
+				`vm`: curent voxel manipulator object itself;
+				`blockseed`: seed of this mapchunk;
+				`minp` & `maxp`: minimum and maximum chunk position;
+				`emin` & `emax`: minimum and maximum chunk position WITH SHELL AROUND IT;
+				`area`: voxel area, can be helpful to access data;
+				`data`: LVM buffer data array, data loads into it before the callbacks;
+				`write`: set it to true in yout callback functionm, if you changed `data` and want to write it;
+				`data2`: LVM buffer data array of `param2`, !NO ANY DATA LOADS INTO IT BEFORE THE CALLBACKS! - you load it yourfels:
+					`vm_context.data2 = vm_context.data2 or vm_context.vm.get_param2_data(vm_context.lvm_param2_buffer)`
+				`write_param2`: set it to true in yout callback functionm, if you used `data2` and want to write it;
+				`lvm_param2_buffer`: static `param2` buffer pointer, used to load `data2` array;
+				`shadow`: set it to false to disable shadow propagation;
+				`heightmap`: mapgen object contanting y coordinates of ground level,
+					!NO ANY DATA LOADS INTO IT BEFORE THE CALLBACKS! - you load it yourfels:
+					`vm_context.heightmap = vm_context.heightmap or minetest.get_mapgen_object('heightmap')`
+				`biomemap`: mapgen object contanting biome IDs of nodes,
+					!NO ANY DATA LOADS INTO IT BEFORE THE CALLBACKS! - you load it yourfels:
+					`vm_context.biomemap = vm_context.biomemap or minetest.get_mapgen_object('biomemap')`
+				`heatmap`: mapgen object contanting temperature values of nodes,
+					!NO ANY DATA LOADS INTO IT BEFORE THE CALLBACKS! - you load it yourfels:
+					`vm_context.heatmap = vm_context.heatmap or minetest.get_mapgen_object('heatmap')`

+					!NO ANY DATA LOADS INTO IT BEFORE THE CALLBACKS! - you load it yourfels:
+					`vm_context.humiditymap = vm_context.humiditymap or minetest.get_mapgen_object('humiditymap')`
+				`gennotify`: mapgen object contanting mapping table of structures, see Minetest Lua API for explanation,
+					!NO ANY DATA LOADS INTO IT BEFORE THE CALLBACKS! - you load it yourfels:
+					`vm_context.gennotify = vm_context.gennotify or minetest.get_mapgen_object('gennotify')`

 ## mcl_mapgen.get_far_node(pos)
 ===============================
 Returns node if it is generated. Otherwise returns `{name = "ignore"}`.
