# this is a no-op change
Ran `black -l 80` over all tracked Python files under `fbcode/faiss/`, using line length 80 to match faiss's documented coding style (`CONTRIBUTING.md`: "80 character line length (both for C++ and Python)"). 172 files were reformatted; 28 were already compliant.
This is a pure-formatting change. `black` runs its AST-equivalence safety check on every file, so no identifiers, string/numeric values, operators, or control flow were altered — only whitespace, indentation, line wrapping, blank lines, trailing commas, and string-quote normalization (single to double quotes).
`fbcode/faiss/` is intentionally excluded from Meta's standard Python autoformatter (`arc f` / `arc lint -a` report no formatter for these paths) because it mirrors to public GitHub, so the Python had drifted out of any consistent style. The C++ is already clang-format-clean (0 of 807 files change), so this effort is Python-only. This diff brings the Python to canonical `black` formatting.
Excluded `demos/index_pq_flat_separate_codes_from_codebook.py`: it contains a Jupyter `!rm` shell-magic line and is not valid Python, so `black` cannot parse it.
This is the base of a 3-diff stack: (1) this black reformat; (2) `.flake8` alignment (max-line-length 80 + black-compatible ignores E203/W503); (3) genuine lint fixes (F401/F403/F841/B011).

Changelog:
- changed license: BSD+Patents -> MIT
- propagates exceptions raised in sub-indexes of IndexShards and IndexReplicas
- support for searching several inverted lists in parallel (parallel_mode != 0)
- better support for PQ codes where nbit != 8 or 16
- IVFSpectralHash implementation: spectral hash codes inside an IVF
- 6-bit per component scalar quantizer (4 and 8 bit were already supported)
- combinations of inverted lists: HStackInvertedLists and VStackInvertedLists
- configurable number of threads for OnDiskInvertedLists prefetching (including 0=no prefetch)
- more test and demo code compatible with Python 3 (print with parentheses)
- refactored benchmark code: data loading is now in a single file
