The following text is in section 6.1:

*         At the Data Sink:

*             If the Immediate Data operation is Completed successfully, the RDMAP Layer passes the following information to the ULP Layer:

*             Eight bytes of Immediate Data

*             An Event, if the Data Sink is configured to generate an Event and the RDMA Message Opcode indicates Message Type Immediate Data with Solicited Event.
The last bullet is either says too much or too little but is not complete as written.  The Immediate Data Message (without Solicited Event) may also cause an event.

One approach is to stop the sentence sooner, "An Event, if the Data Sink is configured to generate an Event."

Another approach is to add another bullet that says almost the same thing, "An Event, if the Data Sink is configured to generate an Event and the RDMA Message Opcode indicates Message Type Immediate Data."
