Abstract
A method and system for performing graphics processing is provided. The method and system includes storing stencil buffer values in a stencil buffer; generating either or both of a reference value and a source value in a fragment shader; comparing the stencil buffer values against the reference value; and processing a fragment based on the comparing the stencil buffer values against the reference value.
