I had a sales call with them recently to swap Oracle Linux out for RHEL.

I mentioned that I was using btrfs loopback mounts, and they confirmed that these are explicitly unsupported.

Even when running the UEK (i.e. for ksplice), this is not allowed, and they must be removed in a support event if they have any impact at all.

You expected Red Hat to staff up an entire team of filesystem experts to support your loopback mounting case?

Maybe just the ones working for Fedora?
