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

            There can be two separate <parameter>mask</parameter> writemasks; one affects back-facing polygons, and the other
            affects front-facing polygons as well as other non-polygon primitives. 
            <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glStencilMask</refentrytitle></citerefentry> sets both front
            and back stencil writemasks to the same values, as if
