Re: [Xen-devel] Page table and memory management

So I do not see where XEN is automatically inferring the L1 type when

order to use a page frame as an L1 page table, I have to find a way to
tell XEN to update the corresponding typeinfo field in order to pass
the verification in get_page_type().

get_page_from_l2e() will do a get_page_type() on your new page, asserting type PGT_l1_pagetable. If the page was previously untyped or was already an L1 pagetable then the call will succeed, else it will fail.
