Hi,

BAR (base address register) is a place in PCI configuration space,
so one really doesn't "DMA transfers to PCIe BAR memory" to be precise.
Read https://wiki.osdev.org/PCI_Express to explore the topic.

DPDK drivers write to BARs to configure devices,
specifically to setup memory-mapped IO which is used for DMA.
Take a look at this project, which is a toy version of DPDK,
and thus it is easier to grasp:
