  The tunneling formalism in the Hamilton-Jacobi approach is adopted to study
Hawking radiation of massless Dirac particles from spherically symmetric black
hole spacetimes incorporating the effects of the generalized uncertainty
principle. The Hawking temperature is found to contain corrections from the
generalized uncertainty principle. Further, we show from this result that the
ratio of the GUP corrected energy of the particle to the GUP corrected Hawking
temperature is equal to the ratio of the corresponding uncorrected quantities.
This result is then exploited to compute the Hawking temperature for more
general forms of the uncertainty principle having infinite number of terms.
Choosing the coefficients of the terms in the series in a specific way enables
one to sum the infinite series exactly. This leads to a Hawking temperature for
the Schwarzschild black hole that agrees with the result which accounts for the
one loop back reaction effect. The entropy is finally computed and yields the
area theorem upto logarithmic corrections.
