No, it just means that you're not triggering any accesses that require peer-to-peer DMA support. Any sort of test where the device is only performing DMA to guest RAM, which is by far the standard use case, will work fine. This also doesn't affect vCPU access to BAR space. It's only a failure of the mappings of the BAR space into the IOAS, which is only used when a device tries to directly target another device's BAR space via DMA. Thanks, Alex
