+Only systems using IOMMUs will be supported.

+Not compatible with migration, altp2m, introspection, memory sharing, or memory paging.

+Because of hardware limitations
+(affecting any operating system or hypervisor),
+it is generally not safe to use this feature 
+to expose a physical device to completely untrusted guests.
+However, this feature can still confer significant security benefit 
+when used to remove drivers and backends from domain 0
+(i.e., Driver Domains).
+See docs/PCI-IOMMU-bugs.txt for more information.
