Failed sudo arch -x86_64 gem install ffi-CodePudding

In my react native app, I tried to install ffi using "sudo arch -x86_64 gem install ffi" but it's always failed and return following error.

ERROR:  Error installing ffi:
        ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of necessary

need configuration options.
