You have to decide whether you want your bigarray to hold values of
type int32 (i.e. 32-bit integers) or int (i.e. Caml native integers --
31 bits on a 32-bit processor).

In the first case, change your IDL spec as follows:

void linear([in,ref] int* m,
            [in,out,length_is(*m),*int32,bigarray] int ia[] );

In the second case, change your Caml client code as follows:

let lin n =
   let ia = Array1.create int c_layout n in
      begin linear ia; ia; end;;
