Requested Package Name and Version: faiss-cpu>=1.12.0

Upstream Repository: https://github.com/faiss-wheels/faiss-wheels

Brief Explanation for Request:

This package is required by Llama Stack release 0.2.22 (RHAIENG-1124). The initial build attempt failed during the release pipeline: https://gitlab.com/redhat/rhel-ai/llama-stack/pipeline/-/jobs/11381379442

Note: Llama Stack team reverted FAISS provider changes (RHAIENG-1137) to proceed with 0.2.22 release before code freeze, as builder issues needed resolution.
