Sorry, but I'm afraid you got this wrong. When the iSER transport is used instead of TCP, all data is sent via RDMA, including unsolicited data. If you have look at the iSER implementation in the Linux kernel (source files under drivers/infiniband/ulp/iser), you will see that all data is transferred via RDMA and not via TCP/IP.
