The question was actually about the layer mask, i.e. what you see in the mask thumbnail in the layers list.
From you explanation it is also not clear if you bucket fill the layer or its mask or what the selection is, which hints that may you don"t know yourself. At the bottom of the image window, the name of the active layer is displayed. And when the mask is active (target of the paint operations) it says "layer_name mask".
