For PV domains you can make it work in a way described
in the Xen Users' Manual.

If you need PCI passthrough for an HVM-domain, 
you must have

1) Hardware with VT-d support (VT-x is not enough!)
2) Xen 3.2 or Xen 3.3-unstable with VT-d support

How to use VT-d to make PCI passthrough 
described here:
