22 Where a 1 appears in the mask,
23 it's possible to write to the corresponding bit in the stencil buffer.
24 Where a 0 appears,
25 the corresponding bit is write-protected.
26 Initially, all bits are enabled for writing.

28 There can be two separate <em class="parameter"><code>mask</code></em> writemasks; one affects back-facing polygons, and the other
