Questions regarding SMP / controller / drivers

Hi all 

I want to build a raid with either the Promise or the HP370 
controller on a SMP system and have a few questions:

HPT370 
  
  - the 'official binary' does not support SMP, does it? 
  - any problems with the ataraid open-source driver (raid0 stable) ?  
  - raid1 ?  

Promise

  - can linux open source drivers do raid0/raid1/raid10 (stable) ?

(I do not need to boot from the raid)
As I have not yet decided on the controller: which one would you
recommend?  (speed, driver status) 
Using md software raid (mirroring) would be much slower compared to 
the software-raid promise/hpt370 drivers?  

Thanks 

Bodo
