Did medieval 1400s Dukes portion their fief out to lesser nobles or did the King give lesser nobles their own smaller fiefs?

I think the king gave the lords the land to do what they wanted, and the dukes got the land from the lords to give to other people if they wanted, or to keep.

What is subinfeudation?
The feudal system was based on permanent heritable land grants in exchange for services. At its origin these services were military services, so the crown (the ultimate landowner) granted large tracts of land to nobles and in exchange the nobles pledged to provide so many knights or footsoldiers in case of war. Those great nobles could grant part of that land to lesser nobles in exchange for a promise of lesser military support, and these in turn made smaller grants until at some point there was a grant to a person (called the freeholder) who actually farmed or lived on the land, and had to provide simple services such as a certain number of days' labour or a certain quantity of grain. These lesser relationships between one who granted land and one who provided services, nested within each other like Russian dolls, were called subinfeudation.
