Eidolon benefits tab: subtype - Ancestor.
Eidolon benefits tab: Ancestor form - choose race of new form.

It states in regards to the Eidolon's race ": At 1st level, an ancestor eidolon gains all of the racial traits associated with its summoner’s race; a summoner who isn’t a 0-Hit Die creature must choose one 0-Hit Die race of his choice from the Pathfinder RPG Core Rulebook. "

It doesn't require a humanoid race only to match the summoner's and/or be 0 HD. So if you were playing a troll or other monstrous humanoid you'd need to select a different race to your own however Aasamir, Tiefling and any other non-humanoid but 0 HD race is allowed. At least I've never heard of Aasamir or Tiefling's getting bonus HD.
Part, if not all, of the answer is in the quoted text: "from the Pathfinder RPG Core Rulebook".

Aasimar and Tiefling are not races in the Core Rulebook. That would be limited to: Dwarf, Elf, Gnome, Halfling, Half-Elf, Half-Orc, and Human. Aasimar and Tieflings are described in the Bestiary.
