Hello, Eduardo.

Just some minor comments regarding the Python code.

Usually is not a good idea to use a mutable (in this case a list)
default value as an argument:

def my_func(param=[1,2,3]):
     param.append(666)
     print(param)

my_func()
[1, 2, 3, 666]
my_func()
[1, 2, 3, 666, 666]
my_func()
[1, 2, 3, 666, 666, 666]

Yes, you're not changing the value right now, but it's something we can
not guarantee for the future when, for example, someone not Python
experienced have to change this code.

Another way safer to write this function could be:

def get_interfaces(vm, devtype, interfaces=None):
    if not interfaces:
        interfaces = ['pci-express-device', 'conventional-pci-device']
    return [i for i in interfaces if devtype_implements(vm, devtype, i)]

I think it's an undesired print here, right?
