ARM Mali GPUs Achieve Industry-Firsts With Khronos OpenGL ES 2.0 Conformance For 1080p and Multicore
ARM Mali graphics processing units (GPUs) demonstrate technology leadership in graphics acceleration through conformance to the Khronos OpenGL ES 2.0 API with two industry milestones. The Mali-200 graphics processing unit was the first GPU to comply at resolutions up to 1080p in July 2008, and the Mali-400 MP GPU is now the first and only multicore GPU to pass the rigorous tests specified by The Khronos Group.
Khronos OpenGL ES 2.0
The OpenGL ES 2.0 API supports a programmable pipeline for 2D and 3D graphics acceleration. If your system has a Mali-200 or Mali-400 GPU, you have a choice of making use of the programmable shaders available from OpenGL ES 2.0 or using the fixed function programming of OpenGL ES 1.1.
OpenGL ES 2.0 page on Khronos.org
Khronos OpenGL ES 1.1
All of the Mali GPUs support the OpenGL ES 1.1 API which supports a fixed function pipeline for 2D or 3D graphics acceleration.
